Wednesday Five: Casey, Obama, Dino Tracks, Calendar

Here's hoping you weren't up all night watching elections, and some things to know:

 

Bronco' BamaNBC News called the presidential election for President Barack Obama around 11:15 p.m. last night. It wasn't until very early this morning, though, that Mitt Romney announced he was conceding the election. So, there's some good news for a certain little girl who gets to stop hearing about the election.
